Chapter 470
An Minyuan reluctantly withdrew from the state office. He drool all morning, but Li Dao froze as if he didn't hear it. What could he do?

The gentry who came with him today are all people in Haozhou who are more cooperative with the Liangshan army in power.At the beginning, Song Gongming used his noble hand to let them escape. These people were all timid and obedient, and the experience of escaping under the knife completely frightened their guts.Since then, these people have become the first local supporters of the Liangshan Army.

But it was precisely because of this that they were so worried.Worried that the Liangshan Army wanted to avoid the sharpness of the Western Army, so that the Western Army could boldly attack Jinling, not just abandoning the Wuwei Army, but also losing more places.

For example, Luzhou and Haozhou.

That's their concern.

You must know that rumors will never stop with wise men, rumors will only be overwhelmed by another rumor.The rumors spreading in Haozhou today are complex and diverse.But don't tell me, there are really people who believe it.

In Chihe Town, in the Anjia mansion, a man with a cold face on his face was kneeling on the ground.

An Minyuan, who had just returned from Haozhou City, jumped up with a 'shua', his face was full of disbelief.Looking back at Dalang who stayed home, he said, "Really? Who did Li Kuina take advantage of? He even dared to rebel in Guzhen and captured Zhongli County. Are you afraid of Liangshan?" Soldiers and horses kill them without leaving a piece of armor?"

It was really shocking news. Li Kui had also escaped from the sword at the beginning, but his attitude did not change much, and he was neither close nor loyal to Liang Shanjun.There have been rumors in Haozhou City several times that officials want to see Li Kui.Even though his name sounds the same as the famous Hei Xuanfeng, but is he considered a bird in the eyes of Liang Shanjun?
"Guan Liu just sensed something was wrong, so he left Zhongli County a step earlier, otherwise, how would the child know the news." This man with a face full of wind and cold is his An family's steward in Zhongli County, so if he felt something was wrong, he would have gone a step earlier Get out of the city, or you will be trapped in Zhongli.

"Father, there is no need to hesitate. I, the An family, have been close to the Liangshan Army, and there is no turning back. The second brother works as an officer in the state government, and the third brother works in the garrison. Everyone knows this. My family..." An's family Da Lang's eyes were ferocious, and his face was extremely ferocious, "The Li family deserves to die, and all rebellious thieves should be eradicated." He said firmly to his father.

"I know it for my father, and I know it for my father." An Minyuan is not the one who lost the chain at a critical moment.Immediately, the confidant said, "Hurry up, hurry up and report to the state government." Then he asked the servant to go to the town office to report the emergency.Said to the eldest son: "Go and call Ding Zhuang at home. As long as Zhongli's thieves dare to take a step closer to Chihe Town, the old man will fight with them."

Chihe Town is not only the base camp of the An family, but also has three workshops built by An Minyuan out of his family savings.Especially for the ironworks workshop, he installed a hydraulic forging hammer in the spring and summer of this year. The power of the latter is indeed shocking, but the entire cost also makes An Minyuan feel distressed.

If Chihe Town were to suffer from a military disaster, it would be difficult to save his own iron workshop. An Minyuan really had a desperate heart.

In Haozhou City, Li Daozheng was furious.He never expected that such a terrible thing would happen under his own rule, which really exploded his stomach.

"I want to make an astonishing performance and impress the king. It's definitely not such a thing!"

He violently threw the emergency report to the ground. From Li Dao down, all the seventh-grade officials in Haozhou City and above were holding their breath and concentrating.Only Han Tao, the victorious general of the army, had a ferocious expression, as if he was biting someone.

Apart from such things under the rule, it was not Li Dao who had done it. Even though he had just assumed office, Han Tao was still very shameless. "This guy is so unjust. Song Zhao wanted to save his life, but now he's rebelling against me, making me wait for bad luck. Only after Han Tao smashed this guy to pieces did he relieve his hatred."

"There are still two battalions of soldiers in the city. The general can call them. I will give orders to the general to call in local soldiers and civilians to serve." Li Daoxin knew about the war, and he was no match for Han Tao.Clasping fists and bowing, everything is entrusted to him.

Han Tao was overjoyed when he heard that.Although the garrison belongs to the commander-in-chief of soldiers and horses, it is not up to him alone to send troops to suppress the chaos.What's more, there are only two battalions of recruits left in Haozhou City. If the eunuch is a little timid and insists on leaving one battalion to guard the city, what can Han Tao do?Such things were not uncommon in the Song Dynasty.

When civil unrest broke out in the local area, the first consideration of Nazhou and county officials was to defend the city, mobilize the township soldiers to defend the city bravely, and then discuss other things.

As crisp as Li Dao, Han Tao was really happy.

In Zhongli County, the city is low and the trenches are simple, but it already looks like it is on full alert against an enemy.Even the big and small landlords and gentry who came into the city with embarrassment also walked in a hurry, coming and going in a hurry.Prepare filial money, but everyone really takes the land deed that they have re-acquired seriously.

Li Kui's group is crazy. They had just seized Zhongli County, and killed the county magistrate, county magistrate, Zhu Bo and others.The prison cells are now full of officials who used to work in the yamen, and none of them are whole.And the family members of these people suffered even more miserable fate.In the small Zhongli County, hundreds of lives were lost in a short period of time, and dozens of heads were hung from the city.It was crazy, like a volcanic eruption that had been suppressed for countless years.

Li Kui's group of people looked like a group of evil ghosts crawling out of the gate of hell.The tragedy in Zhongli County is unbearable to witness.

But those of them who were not involved in it were not crazy yet.

I don't know how many people obediently left the city, looked at the brand new land deed in their hands, but just smiled contemptuously.The situation in Huainan was far from collapsing.At this time, this group of people jumped out, wouldn't they be looking for a dead end?
But thinking about it, Li Kui and the others didn't jump out for nothing.

You only live once.People who don't worry about food or drink are very precious to their own lives.This will... no one can figure it out.

Han Tao led two battalions of garrison troops, plus hundreds of conscripted soldiers, to Zhongli County.But the 'Rebel Army' in Zhongli County is already on the move.

In Zhangzhuang, a few miles away from the county seat, a "rebel army" rushed towards the village with lightning speed.

A small village, but there is no tall wall to hinder it.The sounds of killing and screams soon resounded in the village.Li Tun took the lead in rushing into a house, which was the house of Zhang Dalong, Zhang Zhuang's original wealthier, but Zhang Dalong had a bad reputation. Zhang Dalong's head was chopped off with one knife.

In this way, this rural "mansion" with green bricks and black eaves was divided among the Zhang Dalong people.The emperor also had three poor relatives, and the local gentry had even more poor relatives.Even though these Zhang clan members are from the same clan as Zhang Dalong, they may not get an extra morsel of food.How did Zhang Dalong get thousands of acres of land under his name?Didn't it all come from his father, his ancestors, and himself who exploited the neighboring clans?

What is the reason for Zhang Dalong's reputation?Isn't it just that this guy doesn't show affection even to people of the same clan, is he a wolf?
But it is precisely because of this that Zhang Zhuang is especially hated by Li Kui and the others.Although these old landlords and rich families survived Song Jiang's knife, when Song Gongming first entered Huainan, he could only rely on Liangshan. While sparing their lives, he would not treat Lu Qian's tyranny How much to change.A considerable part of the deprived interests of these big families were divided up by the neighbors and clansmen.

If so, these people may not be able to kill their own clans, but they can choose a few places to kill chickens and monkeys, but it is also simple.

Li Tun is the son of Li Kui. He practiced some fists and kicks, stabbed spears and used sticks on weekdays. He had a very hot personality.This time his father started to fight, but it was exactly what he wanted.Luring the old dog friends and fox friends, getting involved, and became a leader in the army.This trip to Zhangzhuang is based on him.Kicking open the gate, he rushed straight over, flipped the simple knife in his hand, and with a flash of silver light, the man with a stick in one hand fell to the ground, and his head rolled out more than ten steps away.

Li Tun, however, didn't even look back. He led the people in and charged straight inside. Whenever he saw anyone, he would chop them down.This encounter is to wash Zhangzhuang with blood, leaving no one behind.

……

In Chihe Town, 200 to [-] young and strong men had gathered, and standing on the side of this group were [-] village soldiers.The latter only had simple knives, long spears, and sticks in their hands, and their weapons were no different from those of the former, but after training and training, they stood together in the open space, and their aura immediately changed.

Looks like a soldier!

These are the forces gathered by the entire Chihe town.

"Dang, clang, clang..." Several gongs rang loudly, and officials from the town office came on stage one after another. "Everyone, don't panic, the prefect has already sent troops to Zhongli. We are not gathering everyone to counter the rebellion, but to defend our hometown."

"I think there are [-] young people in Chihe Town who practice martial arts and boxing on weekdays, so what's the matter? Isn't it because I can protect the folks and elders at all times..."

These words not only made the common people in Chihe Town feel at ease, but even An Minyuan also felt that his heart was put back in his stomach.

But Han Tao wouldn't. Looking at the tragic scene in front of him, Bai Sheng's heart had turned into flames, as if swallowing him whole.

Looking at the crying baby in front of him, and the sister who had passed out, even though it was the twelfth lunar month and winter, he felt an anger rising from his heart and burning all over his body.

"Beasts are worse than beasts, and thieves deserve death—" General Yu Sheng pulled out his waist knife, and ruthlessly threw it at the locust tree in his left hand, chopping off the tree as thick as a thigh. "Soldiers, our garrison is set up to defend our hometown. Today, the thieves are so cruel to the people of Haozhou, what do you say--?"

"Kill, kill, kill!"

"Kill them all, leave no one behind—"

"Beheaded and killed, not a single one left!"

After the massacre, Huangnipu in Zhongli County, which was still turned into a ghost area, heard loud and clear shouts of killing.During that time, there were Zhongli's children from this county, and their eyes were even more blood red, glowing with blood flames of revenge.

But after Han Tao led his troops into Huangnipu, he found that all the people in the entire market had been killed.Searched the whole yellow mud shop, since the pair of siblings who survived the catastrophe were found in a cellar.

The father of the siblings was stabbed to death in the courtyard. Seeing his father being killed, his elder brother swung a chopping ax and ran like crazy to desperately, but was cut to pieces by the thieves.With great difficulty, her mother stuffed the two siblings into the cellar in the backyard. As Fang ran forward, an arrow shot through his throat.And her sister-in-law, who was even more innocent, died even more miserably.

It's not that General Yusheng has never seen tragedy, but this kind of tragedy happened under Liang Shanjun's rule. This is not only Li Dao and his dereliction of duty, but also a great shame.

The Liangshan army played the banner of "walking on behalf of the sky, eradicating violence and making good" several years ago. After Lu Qian called the king and established the system, he put "loving the people" as the top priority.But now such a tragedy happened in Zhongli County...
